Title: The Big Event is Here (kicking off that little Nak thing Vanth mentioned)

So the big event you've all been waiting for is here. By now, it should be posted in every major population area and will take place on July 28th.

The big thing left to decide is what time to out this particular event, which will kick off the multi day major Allanak event. This event should be at or under 90 minutes (not including after party).

So fill in your poll options!

I'm not going to attend this, but I did vote.  I looked at the amount of votes, picked the bracket with the lowest amount, and put my stamp right freakin there.

That's very kind, in some strange way.

I wouldn't normally vote for 7 EST, but I have to be up for work Thursday. :(

Excited, BTW, IC and OOC.

It is, actually.  It ensures that the time with the most votes must win by a greater margin, ensuring the true majority of people that would attend can attend.

Except that, assuming half the playerbase doesn't play in Allanak, but votes on the GDB anyway, they could totally fuck the experience up for players of 'nakkis by voting to kick off the event hours before the majority of them could log in.

One would at least hope that people were honoest enough to only vote if they were planning to / hoping to attend said event. One would hope.

Is this an RPT or an HRPT?
